It wouldn't surprise me, because it's obvious that Russia and the US have at least 15 trillion reasons to snatch as many pieces of Ukrainian land as possible. Unfortunately for them, I don't think Ukraine will just surrender and agree to any unfair deal without solid guarantees. Although if we remember the agreement from 1994 when the US guaranteed Ukraine's security if it handed over all its nuclear weapons - whoever cheats once will do it again.

The EU simply needs to do more and take a leading role when it comes to helping Ukraine - but without a real leader, the EU is unfortunately as weak as its weakest link.

Yeah, Ukraine already got fooled once with deal that was supposed be their security guarantee. And they lost not just nuclear weapon, but also about 40 Tu-160 and Tu-95 strategic bombers, hundreds of missiles for these bombers, lot of ICBM's
I'm not surprised that they don't rush to sign minerals deal with USA. I on;y don't know from where Trump took number that this deal is worth $500 billion. There is no fact that Ukraine has that much natural resources, and even if they have, big part of it is in occupied territory. And it would require billions of investment to reach these resources.

Here is what you and almost everybody else is missing BIG TIME. THERE ISN'T ANY UKRAINE, LEGALLY.

When Zelensky cancelled elections, what he really did was conquered Ukraine, by cancelling the Ukraine Constitution. He talks Ukraine. But since he doesn't formally have any flow of legalization into what was Ukraine, it all is big talk... and that's all.

Show me law in their constitution which allows elections under martial law
